Equanimity helps again

I was expecting for some kind words today after serving for many years. That is what I will do for others. It didn't come. It would have been satisfying if that happen. It is fine too if it does not. I want to practice controlling my ego anyway. It is fine just it is.

You see, having expectations for other is another form of desire. It leads to suffering. The core of equanimity is accepting things as they are, without blaming anything or anyone. That is so powerful. I find such freedom in this practice that otherwise would have turned me into a miserable person.
